Risk of Regional War in Africa, Meta Scam Ads, Trump vs the BBC

from Global Politics with Leo

Your daily world news update. A risk of regional war is growing in eastern DR Congo. I break down what’s really happening and why Congo’s minerals matter. Also: we look at a Reuters investigation alleging Meta earned billions from scam ads, new evidence of mass killings in Sudan, a major study linking tanning beds to melanoma, rising tensions in the West Bank, Trump’s expanded U.S. travel ban, and his $10bn defamation lawsuit against the BBC. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
